What's the Story?
Each episode of MARVEL'S AVENGERS SECRET WARS SHORTS begins with a brief explanation of the featured Avenger's backstory. This is followed by a short adventure (in which the Avenger always triumphs in the end), and concludes with a summary of what makes them great: "Captain Marvel is tough, even when she's completely outnumbered."
Is It Any Good?
This series has just enough action to give each Avenger a chance to "kick some butt," throw out a few jokes, and utter a cool catchphrase. Marvel's Avengers Secret Wars Shorts is everything you'd expect, and nothing you wouldn't. Like a comic book come to life, each short episode is sure to satisfy young Avenger fans.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
